Vibration-based damage detection in a wind turbine using 1 year of data
In the current state of development, it is very hard to remotely evaluate the actual condition of wind turbines structures. This makes it impossible for a wind farm owner to correctly deliberate about the need of retrofitting the current wind turbine ...
